"This crew didn't waste any time. Once they arrived, they all grabbed equipment and started right in. They work hard, do a good job and clean up when they're done. I will definitely hire them again in the future."

"Tim & his guys put in drain pipe last year for us & fixed the problem with flooding in the yard. I needed 5 hydrangeas taken out & 5 loropetalum put in, river rock added, an azalea trimmed & herbicide sprayed, so I looked up T & C Landscaping. He got the job done the day after I called him. Left my yard clean & neat. Did a great job!!"

"We have a new construction home. Nothing but red clay. Wanted someone who could prep and clean up the property and install a complete underground sprinkler system. The second stage in the spring will consist of fertilizing and seeding the property as well as planting shrubbery. Their work ethic and creativity have both been outstanding. I canâ t wait for the weather to warm up a little bit so I can see the rest of their vision come to life!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The rules for trenching and excavation include setting up and following safety protocols, learning how to use tools and machines properly, and ensuring there is a safe exit for all workers. Keep heavy equipment and materials away from the edge of the hole or trench. Call the 811 dig line before starting any excavation or trenching project to ensure you don’t hit any electrical or gas lines.

Septic drain lines (or leach lines) are typically buried between 18 and 36 inches underground, and should be at least 6 inches below the surface. These pipes are perforated and surrounded by filtering materials like sand or gravel. Burying the lines at this depth helps minimize odors and allows bacteria and other biological processes in the soil to effectively treat the wastewater. Burying lines too close to the surface can cause issues unless the soil is very compact and stable.

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.

Slab foundations are more affordable than crawl spaces because they require minimal excavation, as the slab sits directly on the ground or on footers that only sink a few feet into the ground. Crawl spaces require excavation of the entire footprint of the home to several feet below the surface. Not only does that mean higher labor costs, but more materials are necessary for the concrete foundation walls.
